Chancellor John Healey is expected to raise the National Living Wage for workers aged 21 and over by 3.9%, from £12.71 to about £13.20 an hour, in Wednesday's Budget, according to reports. The rate for 18 to 20-year-olds is set to climb by the same percentage to roughly £11.27, ending recent larger rises for younger staff. The Treasury declined to comment on the newspaper reports.
